ATCs: When not working, you'll find me...

Life goes faster and faster each day, so it seems. According to the American Time Use Survey [Bureau of Labor Statistics], the average working person spends somewhere between 6% to 18% of their day on leisure activities and doing "other" things. So when ATC (Artist Trading Card) artists were asked to depict the theme, "When not working, you'll find me…", this is how they responded.

"When not working, I'm Sewing"

"What I do when I'm not working… I enjoy being a Mom, Grandmom,
stitching, quilting, baking, reading and the great outdoors."
By Sharon Griffith

Hello! Thanks for visiting.

I am a full-time quilter, maker, instructor, fabric strategist and fabric sales rep. I converse and share ideas with others who enjoy fabric, stitch, color and pattern—through my client sales support and classes.

My career in printing, typography and the graphic arts often finds its way into my quilts and classes because I believe that the work is about visual communication—whether ink on paper, pixels on screen, or stitches on textiles.

Every quilt and each maker has a story to tell. Let's get together. Tell me your story.
